Recently found out the GameStop in the Dover mall shut down, this year. I’d frequented it when it was still Electronics Boutique. Last time I visited it, it was a sad and sparse clearing-house for Funko Pops, and I didn’t even make a complete loop of the store before noping out. Long gone were the days of naked Game Boy games on a register carousel, let alone 3DFX hardware, or shareware CD-ROMs for a couple bucks. I think the last thing I bought for myself in a GameStop was a copy of Nemesis in Albany circa 2007.
In fairness - they’ve leveled off, since that disastrous thread from three years ago. Fuck knows why.
Throwback to that time I questioned DRSyourGME, and absolutely nobody had any form of coherent defense.
